Full Throttle Range

When relying on the throttle only, you can expect a 30% decrease in range and the TTP will not aid in increasing range. We recommend pedalling whenever possible, even if your bike has been upgraded to function solely on the throttle. Utilize the throttle only when taking a break or when starting off.

 

FEATURES

Gears

The Shimano 7-speed drivetrain ensures smooth and dependable shifting, with the added benefit of a comfortable and easy-to-use thumb shifter. Designed with a 14-28T freewheel, this electric bike offers the ideal range of gears for conquering steep inclines and efficiently powering through flat terrain.

Disk Brakes

The Wisper Hydraulic disc brakes provide dependable and robust braking abilities. With the Wisper three finger brake lever, users of all hand sizes can experience a comfortable and powerful brake lever action. The bike also features 180mm front and 160mm rear discs, allowing for strong braking and precise control.

LCD Display

The Backlit LCD Display provides a comprehensive view of important data, allowing you to immerse yourself in the ride fully. Easily check your speed, battery level, assistance level, average speed, trip distance, and lifetime odometer with just the touch of a button.

Tyre

The Kenda 26″ x 1.95″ tyres provide a pleasant and efficient riding experience, effectively absorbing minor bumps. The partially smooth tread allows optimal efficiency while maintaining strong traction on pavement and gravel surfaces. With a Kevlar layer for added protection, these tyres also boast a reflective sidewall stripe for enhanced visibility during nighttime rides.

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

The electrically assisted pedal cycle regulations are the laws that let you have a small electric motor on a pedal cycle, and still use it just like a normal bike. Find out what they mean for your e-cycle.

EAPCs – electric bikes or e-bikes in common parlance – must now meet the following criteria in order to have the same legal standing as regular non-assisted bicycles and to be allowed on roads, cycle paths and other places where bicycles are allowed under UK law.

• Electric assistance can only be provided to a maximum of 25kph (15.5mph).
• The motor used must be of no more than 250 Watts (maximum continuous rated power).
• The e-bike’s pedals must be in motion for motor assistance to be provided.
• The rider must be 14 years of age or over.

There are a number of different ‘e-bike-like’ machine types out there which, at first glance (or even after a detailed inspection), may be difficult to distinguish from legal e-bikes. This is an important distinction as the latter can be used without any red tape, in just the same way as regular non-assisted bicycle, while the former cannot.

These other categories are fully regulated motor vehicles under EU and UK law, so using them on public highways in the UK is a much more complex affair and inevitably involves attempting to obtain paperwork and possibly meet other requirements such as insurance and dealing with the DVLA. In short, they are likely to be legally classed as a moped or even motorbike.

Manufacturing standards are also more complex so the manufacturer generally has to through the procedure known as type approval, which involves passing safety standards before the vehicle can be put on the market.

 

WISPER FULL THROTTLE OPTION

Continuing our journey of pro-active leadership, innovation and progression within the e-bike industry we are proud to be able to offer fully UK-legal, full-throttle E;eBikes that will power our bikes up to 15.5mph without pedalling.

As well as making our bikes safer and more easily controlled at low speeds, offering faster acceleration from a standstill, Wisper full-throttle electric bicycles make cycling even more inclusive than ordinary eBikes, enabling those that need a little extra help when discovering, or returning to the joys and freedom cycling offers.

Please note…

The use of a throttle can reduce the range of your ebike considerably, so to achieve maximum range from your bike it’s best to use the throttle only when needed.

How It Works

Once we receive your order for a Wisper full throttle bike we arrange to have your bike tested by the DVSA and Single Vehicle Approved as an L1e in the category 250W LPM (250Watt Low Powered) Moped.  This can take between 2 and 8 weeks as the bike has to be taken to a specially approved MVSA centre for the Single Vehicle Approval tests to be carried out.  The tests are to make sure our standard eBike is safe and complies with current EAPC (Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle) regulations.  Once these tests have been completed we are presented with a British National Type Approval, Minister’s Approval Certificate bearing your bike’s frame number, this ensures the certificate can only be used in conjunction with your specific Wisper bike. The certificate must be kept in a safe place just like an MOT certificate although we and the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency will keep a record of your Bike’s Type Approval.

Unlike an MOT Certificate, the Single Vehicle Approval Certificate lasts for the lifetime of the bike and does not need to be renewed.

Full-throttle eBikes will continue to work in exactly the same way a standard eBike works when the throttle is not used. The rider only uses the throttle when needed, it will not affect any other standard EAPC function.

 

Exclusions

To obtain Type Approval bikes must be fitted with front and rear lights operated together on one switch. Because the Tailwind Trail, Tailwind City and Wayfarer Mountain do not have lights these bikes cannot yet be Type Approved.  We are working on a solution and hope to offer these bikes with a full throttle by mid-2023.

The Regulations

L1e electric bikes are a sub-group of Low Powered Moped that meet the criteria laid down in the Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle Regulations 1983 (SI 1983 No. 1168) as amended by SI 2015 No. 24. The requirements are that the vehicle:

1. Be fitted with pedals by means of which it is capable of being propelled
2. Be fitted with no motor other than an electric motor, which has a maximum continuous rated power, which does not exceed 250 watts and cannot propel the vehicle when it is travelling at more than 15.5 mph

In essence, our bikes, when Type Approved, can be ridden legally on roads and private land within the UK at speeds of up to 15.5mph using just the throttle.

Why We Offer Wisper Full Throttle eBikes

1. Full Throttle eBikes offer a quick, eco-friendly and cost-efficient option for city commuters at a time when everyone is looking to save on rising fuel and transport costs.
2. Full Throttle eBikes offer commuters better control and enhanced safety when moving slowly in traffic.
3. Full throttle eBikes offer immediate power when accelerating especially from traffic lights or on hills.
4. Full Throttle eBikes allow a rider to “take a breather” from time to time, particularly useful when commuting in hot weather.
5. Full Throttle eBikes make cycling even more inclusive, enabling those of us with for example impaired movement to enjoy the benefits and freedom eBikes bring.

Costs and Warranty

Anyone can take their Wisper bike to an approved MVSA centre and apply for Single Vehicle Approval. The cost of the test and certification is £55.00 which is payable to the DVSA and needs to be paid at the time of booking the test appointment.  If you choose to have your bike Single Vehicle Approved yourself, please contact us with the TA details and we will for a fee of £45.00 upgrade your bike’s software, this has to be done physically at our Kent HQ. If you would like your warranty to be extended to cover your bike with a full throttle we will make a further charge of £45.00.  This does not extend the timeline of your warranty which will remain at 24 months from the time you originally purchased your Wisper bike.

We offer the full Single Vehicle Approval certification service for a fee of £300.00 on top of the price of a new Wisper bike or £350.00 on a used Wisper bike.  We only offer this service on Wisper bikes as we know they are fully legal EAPCs.

Our charges include the test fee, upgrading the software on the bike, one of our technicians driving the bike to the test centre, waiting whilst the test is done and bringing the bike back to our HQ in Kent. Importantly it also includes, a £45.00 charge to extend our two-year warranty to include full throttle riding. We charge an extra £50 on used Wisper bikes to service the bike before we take it to the test centre.

If you are intending to take your Wisper bike out of the UK, it is your responsibility to check it may be used legally at your destination. We can for a £55.00 fee re-restrict your bike for you whilst you are out of the UK and de-restrict it for you when you get home, this work has to be done physically at our HQ in Kent.

All prices include VAT.
